State-Specific Information

Point System: Wyoming has a modified preference point system in place for its elk, deer, antelope, moose, and sheep tags. For these species, 75% of the available tags will be allocated to applicants with maximum points. The remaining 25% of the tags will be allocated randomly among all remaining applicants. There is no point system in place for Mountain goat and bison – everyone’s chances are the same.

License Purchase Yes/No: Upon drawing a tag, you are required to purchase a $16.50 Wyoming Conservation Stamp. Those wishing to hunt with archery equipment must also purchase a $30 Wyoming Archery Stamp.

Party Applications: Up to six applicants may apply together for elk, deer, and antelope. Moose, sheep, mountain goat, and bison applications must be individual.

Hunter’s Safety Card Requirement: Anyone born on or after January 1, 1966 must have a hunter’s safety card in their possession while afield.

Hunt Wyoming

With four different application deadlines, applicants must really be paying attention when applying in Wyoming. Furthermore, when applying for elk, deer, and antelope, one must not only understand the attributes of each unit, they also need to weigh out the drawing odds between Wyoming’s Special vs. Regular tag. Finally, the applicant must take into consideration the drawing odds in the max point vs. random pool across all species. Bottom line, Wyoming can confuse even the most engaged of applicants. The TAGS program at Worldwide Trophy Adventures can save you time, frustration, and money when applying in Wyoming.

The Cowboy state has it all: the greatest number of non-resident Rocky Mountain bighorn sheep tags issued annually, tremendous hunting for Shiras moose, mountain goat, and free range bison, good deer opportunities for both muley and whitetail, and completely awesome elk and antelope hunting.
